cost of blank DVD + R DL does not seem to be falling the way one would expect.

They seem to cost the same now they did 6 months ago (verbatim 1-=£20 approx)

The cynic in me would say the entertainment industry has got at them somehow

whats going on?

I used to use Verbatim , but now I use Intenso dual layer from Apremedia, and they are cheap (£1.17 each inc)and reliable.

slightly off the topic... but I have a DVD recorder sat in a draw waiting to go in a PC - is there any way to tell if it's DVD+ or DVD- without having any of the documentation?! I know the last time I tried to use it I bought the wrong ones, but blowed if I can remember which it was rolleyes

Verbs are my preferred choice, the others were picked at random from their list.
Since upgrading my (NEC) drives firmware I haven't had issues with any brand

I know it's an NEC, but the sticker with the model number on it is damaged so not sure!
